FYI

The only thing that is proven to decrease consumption is a significant increase in taxes on alcohol.

Beer Tax Hearing Monday, February 23rd
The time is now and long overdue for an Oregon beer tax! It's been 32 years since there's been an increase in one of the nation's lowest taxes on beer. 
Please come out and support HB 2461! The hearing by the House Revenue Committee will take place on Monday, February the 23rd from 8:00 am – 10:00 am. It is the only bill being heard! 
The more than $300-million raised would fund addiction prevention, treatment and recovery – programs that have been slashed across the state with frightening results.
